Good health has always been a priority for Filipino families, and the rising incidence of fatal female diseases such as cancer and osteoporosis had made many women anxious and worried about these risks. This indicates a need for insurance products specifically tailored for women.

These diseases reveal the hazards that put women’s well being at risk. Considering that ladies outlive gentlemen by an average of five years, every woman deserves a sanctuary from life-threatening conditions.

Sun Maiden and Sun Maiden Plus policies of Sun Life Financial Philippines (SLFP) is a health protection plan for women that helps cushion them from the financial impact of common female-specific illnesses such as cancer, osteoporosis and surgical procedures such as hysterectomy.

Up to five free diagnostic or preventive procedures can be availed for the first ten years of coverage. Currently, inclusive procedures are CA 125 (ovarian cancer tumor marker), pap smear, mammography as well as pelvic and breast ultrasound.

Affordable protection

“For barely P700 per month, we can be more secure about our health. At last, we have something to look after every mother, daughter, and sister who in turn provides love and care to people around them,” said mother, and Marketing Services Head, Mylene Lopa.

Moreover, every Sun Maiden and Sun Maiden Plus can be customized to include add-on benefits like a critical illness benefit, an accident benefit or a waiver of payment upon disability. Ideal for women 18 to 55 years old, SLFP’s unique offering also has life insurance coverage to guarantee security against the unforeseen.

Should one upgrade to the Sun Maiden Plus Health Protection Plan, one can avail of maternity benefits such as cash support for up to 3 childbirths in addition to financial aid in case of pregnancy-related complications.
